In the old Soviet Union, potatoes were hard to come by but vodka was cheap and plentiful. Farmers often had a tough time getting pig feed, so would give their swine bread which was more plentiful.

Socialists think they are so damned smart about micromanaging an economy, but can't organize a two car parade.

One of the reasons that Khrushchev got the boot was because there was actually a shortage of vodka in the Soviet Union.
